why sell?, page-2

I'd sell and make out I was going to flood the market with shares as if the price was going to go down. But at the same time I would have a buy order to snap up the shares that the easily frightened might sell. It would be a balancing act because I still would want to buy more shares than I sold and I realise that it would only take another serious buyer to throw a spanner in the works but I would take that risk.

Believe me, that is the only reason I would sell. But honestly, there is more risk in that strategy than just to accumulate. I am going to retire off this baby!
